I'm going to forget some of the good moments

It's great going back and reading "Alice's" blog. Remembering what she was like at different stages, how she used to say some words, how she used to do certain actions. Those little moments are so easily forgotten. Re-reading about them brings me instantly back to them, but other wise they are lost.

That makes me sad.

I'm extremely grateful that we started the blog of the kids. It helps. However, even if I wrote every day (not going to happen), there are moments that will be lost. Moments that I have to work hard at enjoying when they are happening. Some days it's easier than others. Since Isaac has been born, someone has been sick. Usually me or Alice. That's not been fun, not at all. Those times can be forgotten, but within those are small moments that I want to capture and treasure. It's... difficult. I know that I'll forget them - there's only so much space in my head. The more I tighten my grip, the more special moments will slip through my fingers. (Yes, that was a modified Star Wars quote)

So, in conclusion, this is an opportune time for a cookie (and maybe some tea).

Healthy or sick, never pass up a chance to lick the beaters
